Personally I'm super hyped since Book 4 aka "Dead the the World" by Charlaine Harris is my ABSOLUTE favourite of the series!
"True Blood has been renewed for a 12-episode fourth season, HBO confirms to JustJared.com.
“I am beyond thrilled to be able to continue working with this amazing cast and crew,” creator Alan Ball shared. “This is the most fun I have ever had.”
The hit vampire series will begin production of new episodes early next year in Los Angeles, with debut set for summer 2011."
